Seeking Faster Help for Kids in Mental Health Crisis

You and your kids are out in a storm. One of your children is hit by lightning. How fast would you want a doctor’s help?

What if the hospital said, “Sorry. No one will be able to see your child for at least a month."

That is the scenario many Virginia parents feel they face when it comes to a sudden, lightning-strike-like crisis in mental health.

But a bit more help in getting help may be on its way.
